Day 3:

We had originally planned to go to MK again but we woke up late and were actually in a much more laid back sort of mode. Cody and Kevin immediately asked to go swimming again so we decided to eat breakfast and let them swim. We ate at the Food Court at All Stars for the first time. I was surprised at the food, it seemed much better than expected but the bill for 2 Mickey waffles and 2 large orange juices came close to $20 and that blew my socks off.
We spend a majority of the morning at the Fantasia Pool and really enjoyed just being at the resort and WDW in general.
Kevin and I had to make a side trip to a baby shower for a friend from HS- we left All Stars at 1:00 and returned about 4:00 to find Chrissie and Cody zonked out in the room. We must have sat on the beds trying to figure out what we should do next. Chrissie had mentioned Planet Hollywood and that sounded okay by me so back to Downtown Disney we went. After waiting about 30 minutes we were seated and while the food was fine, the service was slow and pretty shameful. The kids really enjoyed the memorabilia though so that pretty much made the trip over there worth it. While we were strolling around DD, Kevin spotted Captain Jacks and asked me what it was ( he was not a reader at the time) I must have been a little pre-occupied as I just told him, "Oh, that's Captain Jack's." His little blue eyes lit right up and said "Ooh, Mom can we go meet Captain Jack??" Yet another kids-say-the-darndest-things-moment.
At about 8, we head back to All Stars as it is time to start packing up- we are headed back home to Tallahassee the next day. I missed my other kids and hubby but I was pretty bummed. Chrissie and I performed our nightly ritual of people watching. Among the things we talked about how we probably made memories that would last a lifetime for us and the boys.

Coming Up:

Leaving WDW and a Lesson Learned at the Last Minute....
